Title: Sprite apears as a white box.
Post by: Musi on June 23, 2013, 01:31:04 pm

I've loaded a sprite from a file but for some reason when i draw it, it just appears as a white box the same size as the image. I load an image first so i can add an alpha mask, then load the texture, then the sprite.

    sf::Image image;
        image.loadFromFile("Sprites/cursorArrow.png");
        image.createMaskFromColor( sf::Color( 255,0,255 ) );

        sf::Texture texture;
        texture.loadFromImage( image );

        m_spriteArrow.setTexture( texture );
        m_spriteArrow.setPosition( 100.0, 100.0 );
